You Said
You said 'Yes I do'
You vowed your honour to me
You said 'I'll always love you'
To me that's your reason for being
You said 'for better or worse'
Now you try to walk out on me?
You said 'forever I will'
Now you want to go a new way?
Vows may mean nothing to you?
But to me I'll take them to my grave
I always told you that I'd die for you
How do you think it could end any other way?
I never thought that you'd cheat on me
Then bring him here to get your own way!
You're tied to the chair where you sit
Your arms are free but there is where you'll stay
I've made a dinner for you
You'll eat now and I'll bring more for you each day
The blind fold will be taken off soon
When you finished your meal one day
The man that you wanted to fool
Has fooled you and your boyfriend his way
Did you enjoy your meat?
The vegetables I seasoned my way
You wanted to consume me with grief?
You've consumed him in a different way.
